Academics often use jargon and scientific communication styles that can impede collaboration with community members outside of their disciplines. Effective communication is essential for fostering strong, sustainable community-academic partnerships that advance health equity. This workshop provides academic faculty and staff with practical guidance on how to engage with community partners through various communication channels, including emails, phone calls, direct conversations, and more. Learn how to build meaningful, authentic relationships and enhance your collaboration skills.
